As I started to walk out of the nurse's office I heard the speakers ring on. Clearly Monokuma was going to give us another motive. I sighed in discomfort. "Puhuhuhu! All of you seem to be on edge since the last trial, how about you work it off by going to the gym and play some volleyball!" Monokuma announced. That wasn't.. A motive..? Just more places to explore. I walked outside, everyone seemed to be looking around for the gym. It was off to the side next to the school's building even though it wasn't there the day before.
I looked at all the people that passed by us unable to see us or hear us behind whatever we were. Glass? I don't know.. But wouldn't they be able to see us if that was so? Honestly no one was trying to figure out where we were. We are all too set on surviving though I guess that's not a bad thing. I started to walk towards the gym in no hurry. That's when I noticed there was a conveniently placed incinerator next to the gym. I tried to ignore that knowing the possibilities of someone being burnt away. That way we'd have no evidence or anything for that matter. There was also a trash bin next to it. Everyone was just going inside.
"Hey, anyone up for a game?" Kuroo asked picking up a volleyball from the gym's storage closet. "Me!" Bokuto said waving his arm around. "Should we really be playing volleyball right now?" Daichi asked. I tried keeping my head low, I couldn't look him in the eyes. Not after what happened the day before.
"Hey Shoyo, wanna play volleyball with me, Kuroo, and Bokuto? We're just practicing, not much of a game." Kenma asked me. "Sure." I said smiling slightly. As I played volleyball with the three I noticed how everyone dispersed the gym once their exploring was done with. After a while we all got tired. "Thanks for the game guys, it was a nice distraction!" Kuroo said with a smile. "Yeah, you're right!" Bokuto said smiling. "It actually was quite nice to play with you guys." Kenma added. "We should do this again!" I said with a smile. They all nodded. Kuroo and Bokuto left the gym after that. Kenma and I stayed a while and talked as we had barely spoke to each other the whole time we'd been here.
"So, Shoyo, what's with you and Kageyama? Are you two actually in an alliance?" Kenma asked tilting his head. "It seems like it! He's actually been really nice to me lately, I feel like-" "I suggest you be careful around him." Kenma said seemingly worried. "Wait, why?" I asked nervously. "I just find it weird that he suddenly wants to form an alliance with you of all people, the one he always fought with before this.. What if he's planning-" "No, it isn't like that." I said sure of myself. "But.. We didn't think Sugawara was capable of what he'd done and-" "That was an accident!" I yelled a bit angry at what Kenma was suggesting. I'd never yelled at Kenma ever before and I saw the shock in his eyes form.
"Alright. I shouldn't have brought that up. I'm sorry." He said getting up starting to walk away. "H-Hey, I'm sorry, Kenma-" "It's fine, I need to take a shower anyway, see you later." He said running off. I sighed and started to walk towards the exit of the gym when I heard a soft muffled crying as well as someone talking. I followed the voice that led to the storage closet that Kuroo got the volleyball from. I peaked inside and saw Nishinoya and Asahi talking. "Promise y-you won't kill.. You won't die!" Asahi stumbled upon his words as tears fell from his face.
"I promise! I wouldn't do that to you, or anyone here. Sure, I've thought about it but I was stressed.. And scared.. Now, after seeing what happened yesterday.. I don't want all my friends that have died to die just so I can go ahead and kill.." Nishinoya stated. "Pinky promise?" Asahi asked holding out his finger. "That's so childish, Asahi." Nishinoya giggled at his gesture. "Just do i-it!" Asahi begged. "Aright, alright, I pinky promise!" Nishinoya gave in smiling softly.

"Thank you!" Asahi said with appreciation. "It's no problem! Now, can we get lunch or something? I'm starving!" Nishinoya asked. "Sure." Asahi said wiping his tears. I quickly backed away from the door. They then came out.
"Hinata?" Nishinoya questioned. "Oh, hey! Sorry.. I kinda overheard everything.. I didn't mean to I just-" "It's alright, don't worry yourself!" Nishinoya said rather calmer than he had been all those days before. "Al-Alright!? I was crying!" Asahi said embarrassed covering his face. Nishinoya and I laughed at his embarrassment and Nishinoya pulled his hands from his face. "It's alright, Asahi, Hinata won't judge, right?" Nishinoya asked giving me a face that I couldn't tell the difference between a glare or an actual smile.
"No, it's okay to cry, Asahi! I think It's actually sweet how much you care for Nishinoya!" I pointed out. Asahi looked up from the ground and smiled whilst Nishinoya's whole face went red. "If you guys are going to the cafeteria can I come with you?" I asked. They both nodded instantly.
We started to walk heading outside. "Hinata.. What's the deal with Oikawa and Kageyama?" Nishinoya asked. "I-I'm not sure.. Oikawa's been a bit of a handful this whole time. Kageyama can't seem to handle it anymore." I answered. "He really needs to stop messing around." Nishinoya said. "Agreed." Asahi added. "Hinata, Asahi, try and keep away from that dumbass, got it? I don't want you guys getting killed. You means lot to me, okay? So much of our team has already died. Keep Kageyama away from that guy too, if you can, Hinata."

He said seemingly calm. Even though that's all he was letting on I could tell there was a boiling rage and fear inside of him. I sighed and nodded as Asahi did. Finally we got into the main building heading towards the cafeteria.
